Ubisoft: The Division and The Crew are always online, and it's great

SourceThe Division will be always-online, because this is how the game is designed. Its a world thats always on and always living. The fact youre always-online is a must. Its the same for The Crew. You can join your friends or not, but something is happening in this world all the timeNot MMOs. You can have an experience on your own or with friends. Its a non-stopping world, which is like life. Youre getting closer to life. UbisoftWe believe these kind of experiences are great. You can go on playing while not in your living room. You can use your tablet or smartphone to enrich your character or help your character and friends while youre away.We give the possibility for the gamer to always be in contact with these worlds. This is something that is completely new and refreshing.UbisoftSeems like this is gonna be a trend for next gen. Thought SW?

I don't mind Always Online in a single game if it actually adds to the game like it will in The Division. What was shown in the demo would not be possible offline. An Always Online Console is different. It's just a d!ck way to combat piracy.

This is unfortunate. If these guys want to take multiplayer inspiration from Demon/Dark Souls, then do it right and allow offline options as well.

I knew they would be.
Welcome to anti-piracy 2.0. Persistent worlds.
MGS 5 should follow, imagine a constant realtime warzone.

I see nothing wrong with an online game being always online... what did people expect? You have to be online to enjoy what this game has to offer. Its not just a single player game that forces you to be connected.

Still not interested in the game, but this is a silly thing to complain about.

Does that mean you have to check in every 24 hours if you want to play these games every day?

I already knew the Division was multiplayer only and The Crew doesn't look all that interesting so I don't care if it is always online or not.

It's genre specific. Also, there's no single player mode. SP requiring always online is a no-no for me.

Shut the f*ck up, the game is online only for a reason you muppet.

There is no single-player, it's supposed to be a persistent online world. And what the hell do you care about people who don't have internet? You clearly do, so I don't see why you're having a tantrum about it...

Some people will just piss and moan for the sake of it.

Actually the game is fully playable solo. http://blog.ubi.com/the-division-classless-characters-second-screens-mid-crisis-world-e3-2013/

That's good to hear, but I have a decent internet connection, so that doesn't bother me.
